The last time we had a murder mystery Crisis, well, things didn't turn out so great. On the other hand, I'm sort of at the point where Tom King is an automatic buy for me.

I do understand the reticence though. His particularly personal, usually very downbeat style - which I have loved in pretty much everything of his I've read - is a strange fit for DC's heroes, who very clearly work best when their hope, optimism and sense of fun is highlighted.

Still Clay Mann's art should be great and I do just think that Tom King is such a good, interesting writer that I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. If it was anyone but him, I don't think I would touch this with a thirty-foot pole.

I get the Identity Crisis feel too. But in regards to the disappointment and hoping for something bigger...remember what Identity Crisis was essentially a prologue to. I think this is going to be the same deal. There's a reason Crisis was injected into the name instead of just calling it Sanctuary. There's always a reason when they put that word into a title.

I'm willing to give it a try. Honestly, the first issue cover art may not be the best indicator of who needs the help and who doesn't. The trinity supporting this would be a magnet for the big name characters for some sort of appearance. I'm not sure any speculation at this point would be accurate.

These are superheroes,not messed up millennials that think everything is sooooo serious.they we're created to be positive,happy,uplifting role model types,not sad,mopey,depressed,characters that can't function without someone holding their hands.
